Matich SR3 1967

[Pete05]

The Matich SR3 is a Group A Sports Car built for Matich by Bob Britton in 1967. It was powered by an Oldsmobile V8 engine and was driven to victory by Matich in the 1967 Australian Tourist Trophy, Australia's premier sports car race of that year. Later in the year, Matich raced in both the US Can-Am series and in Australia, with two SR3s fitted with 4.4-litre Repco V8 engines. Matich won the 1968 Australian Tourist Trophy with a Repco powered SR3

Her name is Lola...

.....she was a showgirl

This little beauty beat the Lola & others on a regular basis over here during 'her' peak. Even got on a plane to the US to show those over the pond how we do it 'down under'. Still doing my homework on exactly how that went & will update as soon as I finish my 'assignment'

You should have a look at it's sibling the SR4. It makes this one seem tame & timid
